Michelle Pfeiffer comes to terms with aging in Hollywood

Michelle Pfeiffer is no longer consumed with vanity when it comes to seeing herself on the big screen, insisting she’s finally at peace with the ageing process at 55.

The “Scarface” actress has long been feted as one of Hollywood’s most beautiful leading ladies, and admits she struggled to watch herself grow older as her career progressed.

She is now back to making regularly movies following several years of sporadic work, and Pfeiffer is adamant she’s in a good place as she heads towards 60.

She tells Ladies Home Journal magazine, “Once you get over a certain hump there actually is less pressure. You can begin to look great for your age. You don’t have to look young anymore.

“I’ve moved over to that other side – I’m 55, which is a little too close to 60, but looking great for my age is okay now. … Having to watch yourself age on a giant movie screen is simply not natural. It can wreak havoc on your psyche.”
